The one and only Dr. Bryan Ardis is here—and today, we’re challenging one of the most controversial narratives in health: nicotine.
No, this isn’t about lighting up a cigarette or vaping with fruity flavors. We’re talking about nicotine as a nutrient—its natural presence in foods like tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants, and its surprising potential to boost immune function, sharpen cognition, and even help prevent chronic disease.
From Parkinson’s to insulin resistance and autoimmunity, Dr. Ardis explains how small, intentional doses of nicotine may support healing—and why pharmaceutical interests have kept this truth buried. But we don’t stop there. Towards the end, we go even deeper, unpacking the use of venoms in medicine, what viruses really are, and what you need to know about the future of pharmaceuticals and genetic manipulation.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why nicotine is naturally found in plants—not just tobacco
• How dietary nicotine may support brain health, inflammation, and the immune system
• The truth about nicotine addiction, safe dosage, and FDA narratives
• How venoms are used in food, cosmetics, and medicine
• The deeper connection between toxins, modern medicine, and genetic engineering
This conversation is bold, evidence-packed, and guaranteed to make you think differently. If this episode challenged what you’ve been told—follow, subscribe, and leave a review.
